Went there today I seen on the outside that is was reopened.. Went inside there was only a couple and the 2 servers that were there were kind told us to sit anywhere the server then comes to ask what we want to eat we gave him order food we were given another basket of chips and salsa..Food literally took 45mins and when it did the sampler platter was overcooked jalapenos, quesadilla, my burrito the chicken fajita was over cooked....The new owner came out to introduce himself and asked how everything was and he stated that we had to go plates (to go plates was full of bad food) I mean do you leave it?? Idk I just figured pack it then throw it..Let him know that the food was blah all over cooked... 60.00 spent on no good food...

First time ordering catering from Frances Marie's, and it won't be the last! I've eaten at the restaurant several times and am always impressed with the quality and freshness of the food, friendliness of the staff, and clean, well-maintained facility. The street tacos are my favorite! For my catered event, we ordered chicken cupcakes (corn muffins with chicken taco toppings), corn salsa and chips, and a fruit tray. Everything was gorgeous as well as tasty! Delivery was on time and included everything that we needed, and portions were plentiful. The event attendees were so impressed! Thank you, Frances Marie's!

To be honest, I wasn’t too impressed. I know they had a rough start when they very first opened, but anybody with some intelligence would give them the benefit of the doubt for that. This was my first time going, and they’ve been open for a few years now, and they have great reviews. I had been eyeing the El Hefe plate and got myself excited for it. The drinks were ok. The service was great. Our waitress was very nice and attentive, no issues there whatsoever. We had the stuffed jalapeños with the brisket, and honestly, the brisket ruined it. I bet they would’ve been good with the fajita chicken or steak, but the brisket was dry and the smoke flavoring was way too potent. Either they stubbed their toe on the smoke additive or they legit smoked it, but with dirty smoke. The Diablo chicken appetizer was very tasty. The chicken inside was quite dry, but the rest of the stuff wrapped up with it in the bacon, as well as the ranch, made up for the dryness. The El Hefe platter, although it looked nice, was really lacking. The only sear to the steak was from the actual grates, the rest of the cut had no sear at all. Was a thin steak at only 8oz, so obviously they knew they couldn’t give it a hard sear without cooking it beyond the medium rare that I requested, but the presentation was poor. Presentation is one thing though, but the steak itself lacked flavor. It was quite bland, and nothing to write home about. It tasted like a USDA select cut cooked by a weekend grill warrior from California. It just wasn’t a quality steak, especially for the price point. The cheese enchiladas also needed some help. They were just not very enjoyable. The charro beans were good. The rice was mediocre. Overall, not a bad experience. Again, wait staff was good. The restaurant’s appearance was nice. The food was definitely lacking. My biggest concern was the floors. Not sure what they use to clean the floors, but it was like walking on ice. Your feet woods slide all over the place, and you had to be extra attentive when walking to be sure you didn’t slip and fall. The chairs would freely slide around as if somebody had coated the floor with KY Jelly. Whatever they’re doing, they need to fix it before somebody falls and files a suit. I almost contemplated taking a dive to help pay for Christmas presents this year.

Enjoyed this place. Very pretty decor. Enjoyed the service, the servers were very informative on the menu as this was my first visit. Food was AMAZING!!! I got full off the brisket nacho appetizer. But I did sample my food and compliments too the chef. Will be returning...

This place had some pretty good reviews so I stopped in n on my way back to Houston. This is not your average Tex-Mex. 90% of all Tex-Mex restaurants taste the same. Same menu. Same combination plates. All the same. This place was better. I do not like the meat gravy most Tex-Mex places put on their enchiladas. It is usually light brown, flavorless, lots of thickener. This place has gravy on their enchiladas, but like a loose chili that was lightly blended. You see hunks of meat in it. I ordered the brisket enchiladas. The brisket had a good smoke flavor. Small chunks. Bigger than chopped, bite sized. The chips and salsa was addicting. Service was great. Will stop here again whenever in Victoria.

They have the best burgers and fries in town! I tried the enchiladas the following month and WOW they are the best I have ever had! It's so flavorful. If you never tried this place get over there and try them. I promise you will go back!
